Qin Feng looked at the man who had suddenly appeared with surprise.
The man had a cold and aloof expression, and looked very similar to him, but their temperaments were quite different.
For some reason, Qin Feng felt a sense of familiarity with him, which was quite strange.
The man seemed to have just woken up, still a little sleepy. He looked around, then turned to look at Qin Feng, and frowned slightly.
"The spiritual energy here is so thin, how come your cultivation level is so low? You're already 16, but you're still only at the first level of Qi Refining."
Qin Feng felt a little embarrassed when this was mentioned, and stammered:
"In response to your question, senior, I don't know what's going on either. My cultivation level has been stagnant all along."
The man examined him carefully, then reached out and beckoned, and a seven-colored bead the size of a marble flew out from Qin Feng's head and landed in his hand.
Qin Feng thought to himself, "Damn it!" He hadn't even noticed this thing.
The man's indifferent expression changed, and he seemed to want to say something but hesitated, making Qin Feng a little anxious.
"Senior, is there something wrong with this bead?"
The man shook his head helplessly and said to him:
"Don't call me senior. I am just a wisp of your will from your past life, existing to protect you. I wouldn't have appeared if you hadn't just encountered a fatal danger."
"I just didn't expect to appear so early. You're only at the first level of Qi Refining, while your opponent is only at the seventh level. This would have been unimaginable before."
Qin Feng felt as if he had been struck by lightning. The man's words were undoubtedly earth-shattering; the amount of information was quite substantial.
He regained his composure and said somewhat uncertainly:
"You mean that we are originally one, and you are a remnant of my past life left to protect me in this life?"
The man nodded, confirming Qin Feng's idea.
"Then what about this bead? What does it have to do with my cultivation level?"
"This bead is called the Heaven-Stabilizing Bead. It can stabilize all things in the world and seal off a region. It also has its own world, but it is damaged for various reasons. The five laws are scattered in this world, and you need to gather them together to restore it."
Your previous stagnation in cultivation was also due to it. You are its master, and it could only recover its basic functions by absorbing spiritual energy through your cultivation.
After the man finished speaking, he raised his hand and beckoned, and more and more spiritual energy surged in, forming a vortex of spiritual energy around the bead.
This bead is like a bottomless pit, constantly devouring everything in its path, affecting an ever-expanding area, hundreds and thousands of miles across the entire Qingzhou region, and the impact continues to extend.
It's unknown how many important figures were alarmed.
After about half an incense stick's time, the bead stopped absorbing light, and the light flashed by. The man then tossed it back into Qin Feng's mind.
"It won't do that again."
Qin Feng watched from the side, swallowing hard. This method was too amazing. If he were to satisfy this bead, who knows when it would take? With such a burden, it's no wonder his cultivation has made no progress.
"Um, oh, was I very powerful in my past life? Did I reach the level of a Great Emperor?"
The man said disdainfully, "You look down on yourself that much, Great Emperor? What is that?"
Qin Feng thought to himself, "Damn, this is confirmed. This guy's boasting tone is exactly the same as mine."
I am exceptionally gifted. If anyone ever says I have the makings of an emperor, I'll beat them to death. Isn't that blatant humiliation? How dare they look down on me like that?
"Then why would someone be reincarnated? Is there some hidden reason?"
The man shook his head, giving a somewhat ambiguous answer:
"I suppose so. To prevent you from being affected by your past life, there are many things I can't tell you now. If you want to know, you'll have to find the answers yourself. You'll barely have that ability when you repair the Heaven-Stabilizing Pearl."
Qin Feng nodded. It seemed there was more to his story than met the eye. He would deal with it when he had the ability to do so. For now, the most important thing was to live in the present.
However, he seemed to have thought of something.
"You said this bead is mine, and that it's what's stopping my cultivation from improving. Was I really that unreliable before, digging my own grave?"
The man's lips twitched upon hearing this; he wanted to refute it but couldn't find a reason to.
"It was just an accident. I didn't expect the spiritual energy in this interface to be so thin."
Then he instructed:
"I'll go back to sleep if there's nothing else. I won't appear unless there's a fatal threat. I can only help you three times, and then I'll disappear. No matter what happened in your past life, cherish the present and don't miss out on the good things. In my past life, I was also you, and I was so lonely."
Qin Feng was delighted to hear that he would have three chances to make a move, but what followed made him feel heavy-hearted.
He nodded, saying he would cherish it and not let himself have any regrets.
The man touched Qin Feng's forehead with his finger, and then his figure disappeared.
A cultivation technique appeared in Qin Feng's mind.
"You can try this technique. If you like it, then practice it; if not, then switch to another one. Don't reveal the Heaven-Stabilizing Pearl or the technique casually, or it will be dangerous."
"The Chaos Technique" is a cultivation method that refines both Qi and the body; it seems quite powerful.
Just kidding, how could we not need this?
Now he has a powerful backer, but this backer is a bit strange—it's himself! His past self.
He disposed of Fan Erlong and his henchman's bodies and put the spoils into his storage bag.
He continued onward toward his hometown, a remote place where he could only find a cave to stay in at night.
He sat cross-legged and began to cultivate the "Chaos Technique," finding it incredibly powerful from the very beginning.
"Heaven and earth were created from chaos, and chaos is the root of everything. This technique imitates chaos, refines all things, and transforms all things."
He savored it slowly and began to cultivate.
